Greetings from the AMS meeting in Austin. We are looking at 6in of rain or so. Thats what you get when you bring together 3000 meteorologists!
I, once again, worked on my CC screen today.The change is on the LDL to make it look more authentic. Instead of just having the date and time that the currents were last updated, I made it look like the actual IntelliStar and on the LDL space is the location's name with the CC icon and temperature.
There are no plans to make it the final and it's only on the original 2004-2005 IntelliStar style for now, so it's available at this form here for you guys to try at your location: http://zach.dyndns-work.com:53205/cc/betaform.php
Attached below is a comparison. The upper attachment is how it was (still is technically, but not for much longer) and the lower attachment is how it's going to look.
Any thoughts are appreciated!
This is also very bad for those who receive federal financial aid to pay off their financial expenses. The cuts will tremendously impact the number of Pell Grants being awarded to and the Subsidized/Perkins Loans could see even higher interest rates.
My personal weather station is officially up and running as of this evening. It updates in real time, and if anyone is interested in seeing detailed conditions, the link is in my signature!
Or for those with signatures disabled..

Neat! It'll be interesting knowing the conditions in your area, especially since I like studying the weather not only here, but elsewhere. I also have a PWS of my own, I'm sure you and many others know. Does any else have a PWS?
I do not believe it's just as black and white to say that it's his mother's fault. Sometimes parent's do not understand their children and their behaviors. I seriously don't think anyone here has the right to blame his mother, she may not have ever known he was capable of such a thing and ever if she did, she could have done very little to stop it. It's very unfortunate with this entire event, but it's not his mother's fault. Our brain's are very complex (if you haven't noticed) and analyzing it to see what a person is thinking now or will do in the future is practically impossible. We all should understand that it can take very little to cause a person to snap like this, especially if they've had a rough mental or emotional life. So, what can you do? Imprisonment is completely wrong, imo. Just because someone exhibits strange behavior doesn't mean they should be imprisoned for life. You might think that the mentally ill are just crazy or incapable of thought, but they have logical and normal thoughts somewhere in their brain. Really, the only solution that I see would be to keep a tighter gun and weapons control. Seriously, why do you need a gun? Unless you are a sportsman who is going hunting, I see no purpose. If you fear for your life, get a taser or something less lethal. It's not the gun who is killing people on it's own, it's the persons who are allowed to have them. If your government can't do that, they'd better start offering hugs and love to all the people in this country because anyone of them could do this if they get to that breaking point.
Looks like this year is going to go out with a true bang.
